call for papers, previous message From: lsb@minster.york.ac.uk (Laurence Brooks) Subject: CFP: Requirements Engineering 1995 (RE `95) Date: 21 Apr 1994 12:35:37 -0500 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ CALL FOR PAPERS ******** RE `95 ******** Second IEEE International Symposium on REQUIREMENTS ENGINEERING 27-29 March 1995 York, England Sponsored by the IEEE Computer Society In cooperation with ACM SIGSOFT, IFIP Working Group 2.9 (Software Requirements Engineering) ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Requirements engineering is the branch of software engineering concerned with the real-world goals for, functions of, and constraints on software systems. It is also concerned with the relationship of these factors to precise specifications of software behavior, and to their evolution over time and across software families. This symposium, to be held near the beautiful medieval city of York, will bring together researchers and practitioners of requirements engineering for an exchange of ideas and experience. The program will consist of invited talks, paper presentations, panels, working groups, demonstrations, and a doctoral consortium. INFORMATION FOR AUTHORS Papers on all aspects of requirements engineering are welcome. However, all submitted papers must be classified according to the problems they are addressing and the contributions they are making toward solving them. The official classification scheme for the symposium can be obtained by requesting it from the program chair or by anonymous ftp from host research.att.com (/dist/re95.cfp). Papers will be evaluated according to criteria appropriate for their classifications. We encourage prospective authors to look at the classification scheme early, as it establishes a uniform context and may thus influence the presentation of their work. Authors must submit six copies of each full paper (no Email or FAX submissions) to the program chair. Papers should not exceed 6,000 words in length, and should be accompanied by full contact information including name, address, Email address, telephone number, and FAX number. Authors are also requested to submit the title, abstract, and classifications of each paper by email to the program chair a month before the full paper is due (please include full contact information). All accepted papers will appear in the proceedings of the symposium, to be published by the IEEE Computer Society Press. The best papers will also be considered for publication in a major software engineering journal. Important dates: 1 August 1994: title, abstract, and classifications requested; 1 September 1994: full papers due; 1 November 1994: notification of acceptance; 15 December 1994: camera-ready copy due. INFORMATION FOR DOCTORAL STUDENTS In the doctoral consortium, students will present their work-in-progress to selected senior members of the requirements engineering community, for the purposes of feedback and discussion. Presenters will be selected on the basis of a research summary, not exceeding 2,000 words in length. The reports of presenters will be published as notes for consortium participants. Limited financial assistance will be available for presenters. Doctoral students should contact the consortium chair for details. INFORMATION FOR POTENTIAL DEMONSTRATORS The symposium will provide free facilities for demonstration of selected tools. Potential demonstrators should submit a description of their tool, not to exceed 500 words, to the general chair by 1 September 1994.
